Her Knight in Camelot by MarieHiggins

A modern-day man's ordinary life shatters when a fierce, enigmatic woman bursts into his world, claiming to hail from the medieval era. Her mission? To drag him back through time to the legendary kingdom of Camelot. The only problem-he doesn't believe in magic, knights, or anything she's saying. But the past won't take "no" for an answer. Camelot is on the brink of ruin. The king is dead, the realm is in chaos, and the rightful heir-spirited away to the future by ancient magic-has been lost to time. Desperate to save the kingdom, Merlin's inexperienced granddaughter is assigned the task of retrieving the true king. She journeys to the modern world, armed with little more than a handful of spells and a fierce determination. But the future is far stranger than she imagined, and the lost Arthur-now an ordinary man-has no memory of his royal destiny. To make matters worse, she's misplaced the one magical artifact capable of returning them to Camelot. Time is running out, and the fate of the legendary kingdom hangs by a thread.

The Chronicles of Elysium: The Shadow's Embrace by Tyler6318

In the mystical land of Elysium, where magic weaves through every leaf and whispers secrets to the wind, a darkness begins to stir. For centuries, the balance between light and shadow has been maintained by the guardians of Elysium, a group of powerful sorcerers sworn to protect the realm from evil. But when a long-forgotten prophecy resurfaces, foretelling the rise of a malevolent force known only as the shadow, the fate of Elysium hangs in the balance. As whispers of dark omens spread like wildfire, a young orphan named Lyra finds herself thrust into a world of magic and danger. With nothing but a mysterious amulet and her wits to guide her, Lyra embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth behind the prophecy and stop the shadow from consuming the realm. Along the way, she allies herself with a ragtag group of misfits: a brooding warrior with a haunted past, a cunning thief with a heart of gold, and a wise old sage with secrets of his own. Together, they must navigate treacherous forests, ancient ruins, and deadly creatures as they race against time to thwart the shadow's sinister plans. But as the darkness closes in around them, Lyra discovers that the true power to save Elysium lies within herself - if only she can unlock it in time. Filled with breathtaking magic, epic battles, and unforgettable characters, "The Chronicles of Elysium: The Shadow's Embrace" is a spellbinding tale of courage, friendship, and the enduring strength of the human spirit in the face of darkness.
